Help! Has your hair texture changed???

I am 9 weeks post-op (Open RNY) and have lost 55 lbs. I take my vitamins daily and am very careful to get my protein. However, I have noticed in the last week that my hair texture has changed drastically. My hair has always held curl easily and not gone flat. Well, now, it constantly feels like I've just used conditioner on it..it is very soft, very difficult to curl, and even heavy-duty hair spray won't keep the curl in. My question: Is this the first stage of getting ready to lose my hair? And, what can I do about this problem? I know it's not major, in the big scheme of things, but still, it's bothering me and I'm wondering if I am deficient in nutrients or if this is just a normal reaction to surgery 2 months out. Thanks so much for your input.
